* Who is your personal hero and why?

"My personal hero is my older sister Hoku Kubota. She has always been a great example for me to look up to and follow. Hoku is someone who has always strived to be the best person she can be. She has been like a second mother to me, teaching me how important it is to honor my family, appreciate my education, and to show humility when you win or lose. She is currently serving a mission in Singapore, and I can't wait for her to return."
